Just *booting* the system should not depend on enough entropy being
available. Starting services that need entropy may be delayed, but
just booting should not depend on entropy being available.

This is enlightening:

Openssh taking minutes to become available, booting takes half an hour
... because your server waits for a few bytes of randomness

According Daniel Systemd developers are basically getting it wrong to
the maximum extent possible.


Live-isos with openssh-server hang on boot while waiting for enough entropy to make new host keys. I get this with sysvinit (in Devuan). I made a live-config script to start haveged before openssh-server starts to fix it.
